Carts and Wagons Review

On a recent visit to the Elkhorn Antique Flea Market, one of the first thing that I noticed was the shoppers who brought along their own shopping cart. The carts and wagons were everywhere.

History of the Antique Mall

Many years ago Antique Shops consisted of single owners with storefronts located along the main streets of small towns. There are still a few like this but most have grown into Antique Malls. These malls consist of a group of Antique Dealers who rent spaces to display and sell their goods. Each mall is unique and offers a place to “Find What You are Looking For.” They offer scenes of the past that are creatively displayed in vignettes that trigger memories from our youth. The possibilities of what you will discover are endless.

Wisconsin Flea Markets and Maxwell Street Days

When it comes to Flea Markets, Wisconsin celebrates them all year round, but most are held during the spring and throughout the summer. You can find many bargains and antique treasures at these events. Home decorations are always plentiful along with gift ideas for the holidays. Fresh local produce stands offer you wonderful treats.

Antique dealers showcase their collections at these events. Not only will you find many antiques, but also useful items for your home at very reasonable prices.

WISCONSIN ANTIQUE SHOWS

Dedicated dealers provide quality antiques throughout the year in various parts of the state. These shows are hosted by enthusiasts and antique dealers who have comprehensive knowledge of what they are showing. Several organizations such as Wisconsin Antique Dealers Association, The Wisconsin Pottery… Tractor Pulls and the famous Iola Car Show. Check out the calendar of events and search for shows antique shows.

Just like snowflakes – no two antique shops/malls are ever alike because each one is designed by individuals who create unique spaces to display treasures from the past. You can find rare and charming pieces hidden among the displays.

Each shop has a personality of its own. The people who build these shops devote their time and creativity to bringing the past into the future. I have found that Antique Dealers are as unique as the treasures they sell. They have a passion for what they do. Their knowledge is invaluable and they love to converse about their collections.

Wisconsin is known for its dairy farms but some have turned into antique farms. Located in Waterford our infamous Hippie Tom’s Serendipity Farm is home to a fun adventure. You may have seen him featured on “The American Pickers” TV show. Hippie Tom has a passion for collecting and creating a new life for old pieces. His farm is open several times a year for you to come and browse.
